About Me

Anil Kumar:Born and brought-up in a small village Soppahalli of Anekal Taluk, located in southern part of India (Bangalore District, Karnataka State)Did Schooling in a nearby town Anekal.Later moved to Bangalore for college education, joined 'The National College' Basavanagudi to pursue B.Sc - Computer Science.

After graduation joined Govt R.C College of Commerce & Management (Bangalore University) to get MBA in Information Systems & MarketingSoon after MBA, joined a small software company as Business Development Executive. Later joined another small software company as Business Analyst. Worked for few years as a business Analyst, later took Project manager role in the same company.

Now I am working as a Project Manager in one of the biggest players in software industry.

I have worked on different domains like BFS (Banking & Financial Services), E-commerce, Health care, Business Intelligence and few stand alone domains like auctions, website design and development.Till date, performed roles: Business Analyst, Project Coordinator, Project Manager, Onsite Coordinator.

My writing:After my MBA, I had job offers but most of the offers were on the marketing side. My college had placement cell and most of the companies were on marketing & Finance vertical. No companies on campus placements offered Business Analyst.Since I did not come though IIM's or some top 'B' schools, it was difficult for me to get a job in a software company as a Business Analyst. I kept applying for job but no luck. I did not want to sit idle, I joined a small company as Business Development Executive but my focus was on Business Analyst role.I should thank, I thank, I keep thanking.. .... my friend, my college senior, my guide Mr. Manjunath Siddiah who helped me & guided me to get into a software company as a Business Analyst.Just like any college pass-out's, I just had bookish knowledge ( which was out dated as well). Manjunath taught me SDLC, business analyst roles & day to day activities with examples which boosted my knowledge and confidence. Also tuned my resume to reflect actual business analyst roles. As a fresher I had knowledge of 1+ year experienced business analyst. I got interview and I was through.

Happily working in my desired job/role, I thought why should I not help some college freshers? I shared my experience with my juniors but I wanted to reach larger audience. I thought of publishing on a website, which may help students all over my state & country.This is how I started writing.If any student is benefited from my writing, I am honored !!
